Agfa developed a new plate technology that meets the demand of newspaper printers to streamline production processes further and to reduce machine maintenance.The Avatar V-ZH plate requires no pre-heating unit, which reduces printers’ capex and energy consumption, while gaining them floor space.In addition,

Avatar V-ZH has a very high image contrast after clean-out,

allowing a visual image inspection to avoid mix-ups on press. Avatar Z-VH is suited for high-quality Arkitex Sublima screening. Using it with Arkitex OptiInk software will result in a more economical use of ink, higher color fidelity, and improved make-ready time with less paper waste.
